Although I would have prefered it to be integrated on the My Games page. Will this functionality be tweaked (also) to the My Games page itself (so you can sort all games by urgent games), by any chance, in some future?
I like the fact that it's on the top bar. This way, you can access it from anywhere on the site, you don't have to go to My Games to see it.

Click on Alert to sort the My Games page in the same order as the new feature.

That's not really the same.

Let me start by saying that I think the new features are great!

I do have a few comments, though:

1. How are urgent games defined? I currently have 3 games where my timebank is depleting, but none of them are showing in the urgent games list??
2. There's a glitch if you click the "info" link next to any game - the mini board is there, but the pieces are filling out only appr 60% of the board.
Edit: The "info glitch" apparently only applies after you have clicked the urgent games link...

1) Top 10 games closest to being timed out. (The least timeout days and timebank combined.)

2) Well spotted. There is a clash between the old and the new here. The info links are going to be migrated to the newer code shortly, so this glitch will go then anyway. (It is trivial to fix anyway.)

The Opera glitch mentioned in my first post is now fixed too, so support for this stuff should be across the board now. (Unless you are mad enough to use IE5 on a Mac still...)

Thanks for the clarification.
I normally look for small yellow clocks on My Games page and
move in those games first. That's why I was surprised not to
find those games in the urgent games list.

I'm pleased you like it.

There are a few more similar enhancements waiting to be released on Monday too.

Due to flooding at RHP HQ offices, I might not get the new stuff out the door today.

Is everything alright?! Where abouts is RHP based anyway? I seem to remember you telling us at the meet but I've forgotten.
